As the pledge drives go on longer, they become a severe burden for listeners to KCSM. And that's just here in California. I stream it over my internet radio bringing the Bay Area into my east coast home as often as possible. It really adds some sophistication to the area. At last they can focus solely on tormenting listeners with their seriously idiotic patter. There are those such as Jayne Sanchez, Greg Bridges and others who continue the tradition of understated, tasteful and efficient style that started at KJAZ. But criticisms can be made.First, I have to wonder about its revenue model. I feel like Sonny Buxton is giving a college course on Jazz every Saturday morning, a true treasure!

It really adds some sophistication to the area.I will always support this station in generous fashion. The radio station is not-for-profit, and listener-supported. Then in High School and College KJAZ and KRE. I also loved to listen to KKSF or KDFC on rainy days. The Pledging is a pain, but name a public station that doesn't pledge, at least they're consistent and do warn you, unlike KQED which just inserts them in as they please, puts on their best programming and then go into repeats until they do it again a few weeks later...  Maybe.They are on the internet and I think they are also on  satellite (I think Parlocha's show is). Once again that number is 555-1212. The most recent fund drive has ended, and the station has sadly fallen short of its goal yet again. When I moved to the South Bay and KJAZ didn't always come through it was pitiful college stations like Foothill College and Santa Clara University. A true class act.

Varela plays about 20% less music than other announcers because he focuses the show on himself, and what he is doing. This was in late January or early February and the request has not been honored. Maybe it's because I know it's her, but if I'm listening to the station and hear completely conventional and uninspiring music, I know it's Melanie in the Afternoon. A lot for one little station to produce. They have had to resort to corporate sponsors anyway with their semi-commercials, so "commercial-free jazz" is a misnomer. KCSM, which began as a learning center for broadcasting students, has programmed jazz full-time since 1988, outlasting KJAZ, which folded in 1994. Spread the word, guys. Since 1959, host Richard Hadlock has been improvising on historical themes and bringing forth worthy performers - from Armstrong to Zorn. Her raspy voiced "Show me the money, honey!" And variety.

There are other good jazz stations in the country, I know. Then after they seem to play not so good music sucks.i understand that they have to play different types of jazz  but really after a pledge I never here any frank Sinatra or Dean Martin or count basie. OK, it's great and I listen to it a lot too. Both are educational, feature discussions with musicians, and are member supported. Variety is amazing. Really appreciate this feature, although sometimes the playlist doesn't update, getting 'stuck' for an hour or more. Nothing like your playlist out here and less commercials is always better!This native San Franciscan supports you and thanks you!!! From obscure archival treasures to new introductions. If you're comfortably seated, I'll get started!Mr. Latin on weekend afternoons.I am annual paying supporter of this public radio station and hope KCSM will be around for long long time.

DJ at KCSM Radio 91.1 in San Mateo, CA. It gets me that most of the other hosts with specialty shows allow others to fill in for them, not Varela, no one is allowed into this particular kingdom. He has a horrible habit of playing the same song under the jazz datebook and announcing it like he has never played it before. Instead of all the (endless) pledge breaks every few weeks, wouldn't it be better to just get one angel (or two), call it (for example) the Larry Ellison Jazz Station (can't be THAT hard in Silicon Valley), and get on with it?

The station broadcasts jazz music, 24 hours a day, commercial-free. The television station and its companion radio station were staffed and operated by students. I see some value to having more relaxing music in the evening, but playing Satin Doll over and over is aggrivating. Don't let this incredible station go the way of KJAZ (92.7) and now, more recently, KRML (1410AM). They help me concentrate when I'm working. You must register to favorite. Though I listen regularly to KCSM, KKSF was my go to *mood* station for relaxation. When they have a pledge drive they play all this great music. Handpicked by veteran announcers from the largest Jazz Radio library in the USA 24 /7/365. Sports, music, news and podcasts.

You can't listen to this stuff for weeks on end!Someone needs to take charge of this station and restructure it to assure it's survival.
